Memorial Day is patriotic holiday in the United States. It is a time to remember loved ones who have passed and to
celebrate the heroes who have sacrificed their lives fo r our freedoms.
The traditions of Memorial Day are wide ranging, from proudly flying the American Flag to families gathering to share
delicious grilled feasts. One of the longest-standing traditions is the running of the Indianapolis 500, which has been held
in conjunction with Memorial Day since 1911.

Jumbo Shrimp Stuffed with Cilantro and Chiles
"This show-stopping
shrimp dish will wow
your guests, and it’s so
effortless. ”
In g re d ie n ts
• 8 jum bo shrimp, in the shell (about 1 1/4 pounds)
• 3 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves stripped
• Juice of 2 limes (about 1/4 cup)
2 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil
I tsp. kosher salt, plus additional for seasoning
Freshly ground black pepper
1 clove garlic, chopped
1/2 large jalapeno, with seeds
2 scallions (white and green parts)
1 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro leaves
D ire c tio n s
1. Prepare an outdoor grill with a medium-high fire. Without removing
the shells, slit about 3/4 of the way through the shrimp down the ridged
back and remove the vein that runs down the center. Rinse and pat the
shrimp dry. Whisk thyme leaves, lime juice, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil,
1/2 teaspoon of the salt and black pepper, to taste, in a shallow non-
reactive bowl or dish. Lay the shrimp cut side down in the lime mixture
and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
2. In a food processor, pulse the garlic, jalapeno, scallions, remaining
1 tablespoon olive oil and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt to make a coarse
paste. Add the cilantro and pulse just enough to incorporate into the
mixture. Spoon the mixture into the opening in the shrimp and close the
shrimp. Grill the shrimp shell side down (to keep filling from falling out)
for 3 minutes. Turn to the other shell side, cover, and grill another 2
minutes or until the shrimp turn pink and are slightly firm to the touch.
Sprinkle with salt and serve.
Cook’s Note: Shrimp cooked in the shells are more intensely flavorful.
Leaving the shells on provides a buffer against overcooking, a misfor­
tune many shrimp suffer. Shrimp, even these jumbos, continue to cook
once removed from the grill. It's always best to cook them just until
opaque and let the delicate shellfish finish cooking off the heat.

D ire c tio n s :
1. Pulse the vinegar, rum, brown sugar, scallions, garlic, chile,
Pickapeppa sauce, ginger, allspice and pumpkin-pie spice in a food
processor to make a slightly chunky sauce. Heat the oil in a medium skillet
and cook the sauce over medium heat, stirring, until the oil is absorbed
and the sauce thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Cool.
2. Rub the jerk paste all over the chicken halves, cover and refrigerate
for 2 to 24 hours.
3. Prepare an outdoor grill with a medium-high fire forboth direct and
indirect grilling. Position a drip pan under the grate on indirect side. Place
the chicken, skin side down, over direct heat and cook until skin crisps
and has definite grill marks, about 4 minutes per side. Move to indirect
heat over the drip pan and cook skin side up, covered, until an instant-
read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 165
degrees F, about 35 to 40 minutes. Let the chicken rest about 5 minutes,
then cut into pieces and serve.
Cook's Note: Pickapeppa - the celebrated Jamaican bottled sauce —
is a blend of tomatoes, onions, sugar, cane vinegar, mangoes, raisins,
tamarind, peppers and spices.

Memorial Day is a United
States federal holiday that is
observed on the final Mon-
day of May. It was formerly
!
known as Decoration Day.
This holiday commemorates
U.S. men
__'
have died in military service
to their country. It began first
to honor Union soldiers who
died during the American Civil War. After World War I, it expanded to
include those who died in any war or military action.
The first Memorial Day was observed in 1865 by liberated slaves at the
historic race trac k in Charleston. The site was a former Confederate prison
camp as well as a mass grave for Union soldiers who had died while
captive. A parade with thousands of freed blacks and Union soldiers was
followed by patriotic singing and a picnic.
